Wider sound for better parties The XE300 has a Line-Shape Diffuser that will help your sound reach further than ever. Plus, with its portable size and 24-hour battery life, it’s the perfect partner for your next party. Introducing the Line-Shape Diffuser Inspired by the audio systems used at professional concerts, Sony's unique Line-Shape Diffuser creates line source and distributes the sound energy much more evenly, across a wide sound front, to better fill your venue with audio. This spreads high-quality sound further and wider around your venue, without compromising on sound quality. What the Line-Shape Diffuser does With the Line-Shape Diffuser, the sound spreads further to the front area of the speaker allowing you to enjoy the same sound quality whether you are at the front or to the side of the speaker. This means that everyone in your venue can dance to the same music feeling the same sound quality. A=Conventional Service Area B=Wider Service Area with Line-Shape Diffuser How it works Unlike a conventional speaker, with most of the energy focused from the center of the cone, our unique Line-Shape Diffuser refocuses the sound through a narrow aperture. The increase in sound pressure energy spreads the audio equally in each direction both further and wider out from the speaker. What is the X-Balanced Speaker Unit? Unlike the circular diaphragm in a conventional speaker unit, the newly developed X-Balanced Speaker Unit in the XE300 features a non-circular diaphragm which realises more sound pressure for a high-quality sound. Increasing sound pressure and reducing distortion The unit’s non-circular shape not only maximises the area of speaker diaphragm, increasing sound pressure for more punchy bass, it also reduces driver excursion while maintaining the same sound pressure, resulting in less distortion. Greater clarity and a wider sound stage In addition, the unit’s off-centre design and optimised weight balance help to enhance clarity and widen the sound stage. Dual passive radiators Dual passive radiators reproduce powerful bass notes. Water won’t stop you The XE300 is waterproof and even salt water resistant, so you'll have no worries by the sea or the pool, and there’s no problem washing it either. Don’t worry about dust With an IP67 rating, your speaker is sealed against dust, so you can use it on any surface, whether you decide to take it to the beach, the park or the garden. Party harder than ever The XE300 has undergone extensive shock testing to make sure it can withstand the inevitable knocks, bumps and scrapes that come with everyday use. Even if you drop it, the XE300 will keep on working. 24-hour battery and Ambient Noise Sensing The XE300 will give you 24-hours of play when the battery is fully charged, that means that a single charge should be long enough to power through any party. And Sony's unique mic sensing technology, Ambient Noise Sensing, helps save battery when used outside. Charge up in a hurry If you find yourself a little short of time, don't worry. Quick charging will give you 70-minutes of play on just a 10-minute charge. Take care of your battery The Battery Care feature helps you avoid overcharging and will keep your battery in optimum condition for longer. This feature can be turned on through the Sony | Music Center app. Enjoy improved call quality with Echo Cancelling Have better meetings and calls with Echo Cancelling.
